Brat Packing!

The only gangsta female rapper got to shelve out some g's!

Former So So Def rapper and singer Da Brat will be shelving out some cash after she hit that b**** with a bottle. She was having a birthday party some years ago. She was trying to grab that fine looking bar lady.

The bar lady didn't feel comfortable with her come-ons. So instead of going about her business, the rapper goes "gangsta" on the bar lady.

Now she's gotta to pay up!

The Atlanta Constitution Journal reports Da Brat was ordered to pay $6.4 million to the woman she attacked with a rum bottle, a Cobb County jury ruled Thursday afternoon.

Da Brat, whose real name is Shawntae Harris, served nearly three years in prison for the 2007 attack against Shayla Stevens, a former Atlanta Falcons cheerleader and waitress. Stevens later filed a civil suit against Harris, and that trial concluded Thursday with the verdict. Harris was ordered to pay $3.7 million in compensatory damages and an additional $2.7 million in punitive damages.

Harris’ attorney told The Atlanta Journal-Constitution the amount her client was ordered to pay was excessive considering the prior punishment.

“I’m baffled,” Attorney B.J. Bernstein said. “She owned up to what happened when it happened and was punished.”

But Stevens’ attorney said his client sustained lifelong injuries in the assault, which happened at Halloween party at Studio 72, a club owned by Atlanta hip-hop mogul Jermaine Dupri.

“She has a brain injury and is a brain injury survivor,” Mark Link, an attorney for Stevens, told The AJC. “It’s not something that will ever go away. She has a scar on her face. She had so much going for her and for it come to an abrupt stop because of this attack.”

After serving time at Arrendale State Prison, Harris, 39, is still on probation for the attack. Bernstein said she is unsure if she will appeal the decision.
